After the brief taste of 2006Æs Hummingbird EP, the
anticipation has been brewing for Red Yellow Blue, the
debut from TorontoÆs Born Ruffians. Mostly comprised of
guitar, bass, and drums, the trio takes simple guitar pop
and makes it awesome again. Aided by Animal
Collective/Panda Bear producer Rusty Santos, the perky
rock nÆ roll is as warm-sounding as it is irresistible.
The title track offers some gentle guitars before
ôBarnacle Gooseö knocks out some crazy-catchy gang vocals
and ôIn a Mirrorö builds to an uplifting finale. Somehow
this sounds like The Strokes, Grizzly Bear, and Rites of
Spring all at once, and itÆs completely addictive.
